1928 Far East Kennels- rare article in Oil O Matic sponsored magazine

There is so much amazing information about the earliest chows  packed into this short 2 page  article , and it provides a vivid picture and window into what it must have been like to own a chow in the Roaring Twenties.  I love the description of  “the vanguard of the Lordly Chinese dogs peering through the windows of one hundred  thousand motorcars today”.   The article is a must read about the FarEast Kennels of Pennsylvania and many new facts that are not in the larger article in the archives located HERE

This  was quite the find, from a non dog publication called “The Home of Today”, put out by Oil O’ Matic heating corporation.  Each article in the magazine highlights how Oil O Matic oil burners can make life so much easier and more comfortable.

ABOVE IS THE MAGAZINE COVER OF THIS 14 PAGE PUBLICATION FROM 1928

I do my best to be as accurate as possible in my research, however many times written history finds a way to "morph" over time. I love your comments and appreciate all feedback, additions and corrections my readers have to offer to help make this a well rounded and accurate archive.
